Props for posting... How far is he away from another plaque?

Post by: notorious^q8I on May 10, 2005, 03:41:02 PM
^^ so far he sold 1.95 mill
but he is already certified 2 x platinum by billboard
so he received a gold plaque and 2 platinum ones
he's already a multi platinum artist

he claims that he sold 4 x platinum world wide
to be honest i wouldnt be surprised if he sold 1 mill in canada
and i highly doubt he will reach 3 x platinum in the states unless they give dreams the right push and release put you on the game with the same strong push

i mean look at ciara she left the top 50 and came back again to #14 cause of that single with luda
same goes for akon

I was just thinking that... They already certified him double platinum but I wasn't too sure. There's no way Game will sell another million in the US with the documentary. When's his next album coming?  ;D

^^ he said they just opened the budjet for his second LP
which is gonna be on aftermath only
whicih means only dre is gonna oversee the project

Well "Put you on the game" was originally the first single, and I feel that it DEFINITELY should have been the second single. IF, and IF they do a video for that, which I am hearin they might, then it could possibly sell 500 K more...and also, this is one of those albums thats just gonna linger around the top 100 for a long time, so it is somewhat possible that it can hit 3 mil in the states. I still think 50's album killed Game's sales overall and made some people forget that Game's album was even out.

^^ hell yea 50 killed game's vibe
50 is fuckin too big now lol
maybe hated by many but yall gotta dmit 50 is too fukking big man lol
any ways i just checked
game actually has a 11% increase in sales
he pushed 28K.... hopefully he keeps climbing again
and i really hope they put out put you on the game
there r alot of singles on the album
game should really learn from 50 and hype his self up
when 50 was told by interscope he should put out his album in april he emailed disco inferno and forced them to direct all the promo moeny to him

maybe if game shot a video from his own pocket like juelz santana and pay dj's will push his album to 3x platinum
imean he deserves it, its not fair that chingy sells 3 million and game doenst

^you mean learn how to blackball his own artist? lol that was some hoe shiet 50 pulled. i mean to be real, 50 didnt even do that for the money/sales. he's rich and his album was guranteed to go platinum no matter what. he pulled all that shiet for the fame. its sad when cats get addicted to fame

in addition to that: 50 wasnt in a hurry to get his album out. only reason he emailed "Disco Inferno" and made "Hate it or Love it" Game's 2nd signle is cuz if he realsed The Game was about to take his spot

^^ i mean thats ur opinion
u see in both cases its foul shit what 50 does, but atleast his reaction was in a state of beef
and u cant get mad at 50's hustle
it aint like him and game were close homies
u gotta blame game for puttin 50 in all his rhymes and shoutin G unit
now he has a problem performing his songs lol cause they filled with G unit shout outs
all in all 50 is a business man more than a rapper
and blackballin been in the industry since forever cant get mad at ppl doin it when they have the power
jayz, puffy,nas, irv gotti and alotta other ppl blackballed likes of mobb deep amd even 50

No kidding man... That is the sad part. It wasn't even about the money... It was all about the fame because he realized the game was about to take his spot. I remember back in January when his album just dropped and I started hearing his singles. I was like damn! this guy is seriously about to blow up, I better check his album out. It was right after game performed dreams on trl and I swear to god Iwas lying on my bed kidding myself... like hmmmm I know 50 have to be realizing the game could really take over his spot, but I never seriously thought it was going to spark a beef between 50 and game.
